Interesting stuff William. Interesting, but there are other, more widely accepted historical versions of the picture you're painting. Hazing in the U.S. traces back to as early as 1657. I don't think it was so much to "remove innocence" as you put it, but hazing is and was a tool to assimilate young people of various backgrounds into the university system, build loyalty, teach respect and hierarchy, etc.

I wouldn't say that it's being removed is purely a "politically correct" move, but rather a response to the fact that hazing accidents, injuries and deaths create monetary liability. Recent legislative endeavors have also rendered hazing criminal in many cases.

As for the word "allege," I'm a law student at the moment. The words I choose are probably not those a "normal" human being would choose.

I'd like to hear more about the Luciferians. Are you saying that academia, and through it, the greek system is satanic? You can't just go around saying Luciferians are behind something without explaining who those folks are.
